I wish I could turn back the clock to the 70s, and the dead rails of Belmont, so people could see what a dead rail really looks like.

Oh, I didn't mean any of that as a personal opinion. I really couldn't recall why Afleet Alex had a "bad" trip in the Derby and had a vague recollection that this was the excuse.
Basically, I used the intial post about Afleet Alex to use as a springboard to rant about other, more interesting Triple Crown years that don't involve Giacomo...
